Caution! Due to inherent human biases, it may seem that reports on articles aligning with our views are crafted by opponents. Conversely, reports about articles that contradict our beliefs might seem to be authored by allies. However, such perceptions are likely to be incorrect. These impressions can be caused by the fact that in both scenarios, articles are subjected to critical evaluation. This report is the product of an AI model that is significantly less biased than human analyses and has been explicitly instructed to strictly maintain 100% neutrality.

Nevertheless, HonestyMeter is in the experimental stage and is continuously improving through user feedback. If the report seems inaccurate, we encourage you to submit feedback , helping us enhance the accuracy and reliability of HonestyMeter and contributing to media transparency.

Detected Manipulations & Suggested Changes

Sensationalism

The article uses sensational language to describe Trump's appearance at the trial and his previous comments about the case.

Trump voluntarily attended the first three days of the trial, October 2-4. He turned his appearance into a campaign stop by complaining about the case at every opportunity to TV cameras in the hallway outside the courtroom.

Use neutral language to describe Trump's appearance at the trial and his comments.

Biased language

The article uses biased language to describe the trial and the actions of the parties involved.

During his first visit to the court earlier this month, Trump said the trial was a “scam”, and accused James, a Democrat, of attempting to hurt his chances in the election.

Use neutral language to describe the trial and the actions of the parties involved.

Omission of key information

The article omits key information about the allegations against Trump and the evidence presented in the trial.

New York Attorney General Letitia James' lawsuit against Trump alleges that he and his company deceived banks, insurers and others by massively overvaluing his assets and inflating his net worth on paperwork used in making deals and securing financing.

Include more information about the specific allegations against Trump and the evidence presented in the trial.

Unbalanced reporting

The article provides more coverage and quotes from Trump than from Cohen, creating an imbalance in the presentation of the two sides.

Instead of Cohen, Trump's courtroom visit is likely to overlap with the resumption of testimony from his company's assistant controller, Donna Kidder.

Provide more coverage and quotes from Cohen to balance the presentation of the two sides.
